So I can write this down in my own personal history. As I sat down I logged on to Twittaa as I call it for a min, just to see what they were tweeting abt. As soon as I got on one of my Angel Sisters retweeted a tweet from Trey. It was a pic and he said he was comin to my city, he was comin to Detroit, Mi!! My jaw dropped and I suddenly got excited. I suddenly got excited, I would have a chance to meet the guy that I admired for the last few years. The guy that gave me the strength to simply be myself. Of course I retweeted what my she had retweeted and I instantly went to his page to make sure and to see if he was still tweeting. Yeesss, my dreams were coming true. Did I have a chance that many fans/Treys Angels have had before me? It seems as if I did as I looked at the picture that Trey tweeted and posted on instagram. I had to immediately start planning for that day, I wanted my first meeting with my fav to be special. I wanted him to remember me, I wanted to always stick out in his mind. As I read the flyer Trey posted I realized what you had to do to meet him. In order for you to meet him you had to purchase one of Treys brand new CDs entitled "TRIGGA" for FYE. Now I had previously purchased his newest CD more than a few times but since I had to purchase another to get his autograph, it looked like thats what I was going to be doing. I was overjoyed, I had never been in front of, I had never been actually face to face with the singer. I was so excited, me meeting Trey Songz the singer, I was ready. Actually I was ready since the I first saw the flyer he tweeted. That was 2 days before the actual meeting was to take place. I replayed and replayed the thought of us meeting in my head all day. I kept thinking actually fantasizing about our meeting. I wasn't sure who all knew about him coming to Detroit so I texted, messaged who all didn't know Trey was on his way to Detroit on a few days. I had texted a few spoken to a few other Angels who were deciding if they were actually coming out. I had spoken to Dominique an Angel who was trying to see if she was coming out. She was another Angel that lives in another city here. We exchanged number so that I coyld see if I could meet her there as well. She was going to meet me at the signing along with Kesh that next day. I texted Kesh, another Treys Angel who responded and said that she would be at work early that day and asked me if I would purchase her copy for her and she would be joining me after words. Of course I could for her. She had met Trey maybe a good 3 or 4 times previously and would love to meet him again at this signing. I was beyond excited and words couldn't contain my happiness. I had to make sure everything was perfect for me to meet him. My children go to summer camp everyday from 8 am to 5pm since I was going to meet Trey this day I decided to keep them with me. Trey loves kids anyway and I know that my kids would get a kick out of meeting Trey so we, my younger 2 kids and I set out to Berkeley that morning. The bus actually took longer than anticipated so we actually caught a cab and it actually wasn't as far as I expected Well I actually never inquired how far Berkeley was from where I live. We arrived at FYE shortly after 9 am and FYE opened at 10 am. As we pulled up I noticed the line to FYE was wrapped around the corner. That discouraged me a tad bit because I never realized how big of a star my fav was until I saw the line wrapped around that corner. I knew he was a humongous super duper star but people go extra hard for stars that they love. I knew when I got there and saw those other fans, I knew our day was goin to be long. When we arrived I instantly searched through the crowd for anybody that I knew. But once I didn't see anybody I just stood in line like the others waiting to see Trey. Once it turned 10 am and the store opened we all waited in line to buy our copies of #TRIGGA and to receive a wristband ensuring that we would get our CDs signed by our fav artist. I was so excited that I was even there. I had never even met Trey before, I had heard all of these stories from everybody else and I just wanted to see what it was really like. I relished the thought. He had meant so much to me.He had helped me so much just by being himself, just by having the attitude that he had, being so selfless, I had to me him. Eventually we were led in one by one to purchase our copies of Treys latest CD. I found at least another Treys Angels Sister Jayne that I had spoken to on Twitter but never met before. As I purchased my copy, I also had bought a copy for another Angel Kesha who was at work but would be joining me after she got off of work around 12 pm. My children were behaving and I was happy as we sat down and waited for the meeting to begin. It was shortly after 10 and we had all day to wait. I found Jayne and sat near her and the others she was with. Dominique came shortly after and I was happier to at least know a few others that were among all of the young ladies that were there. Sitting there was a task being that it was only 10 am and Trey wasn't scheduled to be there until 4 pm. I had my copies of #TRIGGA along with the wrist band that ensure my meeting of him. Only one was mine, the other copy belong to Kesha who was coming to meet me and wait in line to get her CD signed as well. We all sat as I listened to all of the other women tell me about there times of meeting him and being in his company I was psyched about meeting him. We had time to kill and the kids were bored so I kind of let them play inside of the store while we waited. Passing time talking helped me. We waited and they finally asked up to get amped up to see Trey. Most of the people there had started screaming, it was almost time for him to arrive.As they. Got us really to see him and while we were sitting waiting these guys were walking around the store. The radio station came and started interviewing people. I got excited because I was imagining what our meeting would be like. In my head there were many of scenarios that played out. Finally his people got everything togethef in coordination with the stores policies There were other people walking around and I thought I knew most of Treys entourage but I was still unsure of who everyone was. All of a sudden everyvody started screaming and I am standing there bewildered looking for this guy who, in my opinion had changed my life, my thoughts and my beliefs in life. While everybody was screaming, I was looking for this amazing guy qho had changed my life. This guy who made me believe in myself in over 20 years. The guy who didn't even know that I existed other fhan a few tweets. Orginally I had only bought one CD and then I figured that it would be cool if my kids had there own CD, their own personally experience with Trey. My kids would thank me for this hopefully. Lol So I got my 2nd CD for the kids to get signed, so that they could havevtheir very own Trey experience, just as I was. So I hear all of these screams and in walked one of my favorite people in the world. Looking at him I was kinda shocked, I didn't know wgat to expect. But there he stood, all 6'1" inches of the most gorgeous guy I had ever seen in my life. All of the pictures that I had seen. The pictures most certainly hadn't did him any justice. And that beautiful smile lit up the entire store. Whenever you saw that smile you couldn't help but to smile as well. Amid of all the screams, the manager had actually gotten us to quiet down, line up and get ready to get our CDs signed. They had us take our booklets out so that Trey could autograph each one individually. This moment had always been a dream of mine to actually of mine. I couldn't believe he was standing that close to me. I wanted to pass out, I wanted to scream but I had to hold it together. I didn't want my kids to see me freak out so I held my composure and kept myself together while awaiting to see this man in person, to touch him to hold his hand, just to be as close to him as possible. We were all lined up and I kept imagining how this moment would be played out. Then they had us all lined up with out booklets to our CDs out. My imagination was getting the better of me. We were all lined up waiting to meet Trey, this guy that I held close for so many years. I had never been this close to him and now that I was, I didn't know what to do. I patiently await my turn in line as I got closer to my dream of meeting Trey and actually speaking to him, smiling at him and being able to be as close to him as possible. My wildest dreams have came true and I was so excited I couldn't speak. As we got closer to the table I started to get really nervous. What would I say? What would I do? Would I spazz out, cry or simply play it cool? I mean he was only Trey fuckin Songz, the man I had admired since 2010 not only for his music but also his views on life. He had became not only a sex symbol to me also a life coach and mentor. I loovvee Tremaine Aldon Neversome. He meant the world to me. As my children and I stood in line to meet him with about 5 people i
n front of me I started to relax. I said Cici, his assistant greeting everybody as we all stood in line. The women in front of us were trying to decide who would record their experience, they couldn't decide so graciously asked me if I would record theirs. I agreed and began to record theirs. We were next and I became quiet as if I couldn't talk. I was the proud mom as I watched my children interact with Trey as his face lit up as my children approached him. He saw me, smiled and spoke. I smiled the biggest brightest smile and reciprocated the greeting. I watched my children have the experience of my life. Lol Him loves kids and hevwas really having a great time with the kids. I totally loved the way he interacted with my kids, even hi5'ng my son. As my kids walked away they walked as away my daughter walked away she slid Trey a small FYE bag. She told Trey "I have a gift for you" he was quite surprised as she handed the vag. He opened the bag a saw the pack of starburst. He smiled, as he took the candy out of the bag. "I love Starburst" he told her. I smiled hard. My daughter kbew qhat she was doing, I taughter her well. Well Trey signed our booklets and it was over. We walked away with smiles on our faces as we looked at our signed autographed booklets. Our moment with Trey was over so quickly I couldn't believe it. Then I realize that I barelg even spoke to Trey. I immeadiately started going over what I shold have did, what I should have said to make my moment last longer. As we walked down the street I kept saying "I never even talked to Trey, he didn't even notice me" And I was sad. My kids said "Mom, you didn't hear him speak to you?" I said "Noo" and couldn't believe he actually was talking to me and I didn't hear anything from him, I didn't even acknowledge him at all. I felt like a loser because I never did all of the things I said I would do when I first meet Trey but I just looked at mg signed booklet and smiled to myself. After all I did meet Trey and got my first signature from the man I have always admired.
